Forecasts

Dreamy (5/2), Tundra Rose (11/4), Bouvier (7/1), Stellenbosch (7/1), Mythical Bird (12/1), Tap Dancer (12/1), Bela Sonata (12/1), Arabian Leopard (14/1), Ghaiyya (16/1), Sofia The First (20/1), Romantic Spirit (22/1), French Haven (25/1), Amica (33/1)

Those with previous form don't set a tall standard and it could be worth siding with a newcomer. DREAMY makes obvious appeal on paper for the Ballydoyle team and could be the way to go before market clues. Of those with experience, Bouvier shaped well on debut at Doncaster and ought to improve, so she can play a part. Arabian Leopard and Ghaiyya are other debutantes to note, with Stellenbosch another to factor in.
